Why I Started This Blog
As a young girl, I dreamed of becoming a doctor—a passion sparked by my desire to serve and help those in need. Life, however, had other plans. While studying my 12th grade in a hostel away from home, I encountered life lessons that shaped me profoundly. The environment, homesickness, and peer influences veered me off course, but they also taught me resilience.
I went on to pursue a Bachelor’s in Physiotherapy (BPT), but the work environment didn’t feel like home. Then life blessed me with marriage, motherhood, with a beautiful daughter. When the COVID hit, during that time of stillness I thought to learn psychology.
I pursued a Master of Arts in Psychology (MAPC) and earned certifications in Life Coaching and Family & Couple Counseling.
We moved to Germany for my husband’s career. I completed a Diploma in Child and Adolescent Psychology, all while dedicating myself to raising my two wonderful children. Despite life’s turns, my curiosity about the purpose of life, mind, and self-discovery never faded. That’s how this blog happened—a place to document my thoughts, share stories, and express myself through art and writing.
Why I Write
I’m a reserved person by nature, but stress of motherhood and adulting have pushed me to step out of my comfort zone and express myself. This blog is deeply personal, rooted in my own journey and a desire to share what I’ve learned along the way. While I don’t have all the answers, I bring a genuine passion for all the aspects i post here. By weaving together my experiences with insights from trusted sources and ongoing exploration, I aim to create a space where i can learn, reflect, and grow.
What Defines Me
I am an artistic soul who finds joy in painting, drawing, creating something new, love for plants, and cherishing life’s small, simple pleasures bring me happiness and peace. My biggest inspirations are my Parents (Amma Nanna, Pinni Babai) and my husband, all of whom embody selflessness, always extending a helping hand without expecting anything. A principle deeply instilled in me by watching my father is Do what is right, not what is easy.
I strongly believe in embodying five key qualities:
- Self-Respect
- Strength
- Dignity
- Grace
- Integrity
These values guide me, even as I navigate my weaknesses and embrace my strengths.
Let’s Journey Together
If you’re here to pause and reflect, I hope you find something meaningful, comforting, or inspiring in these posts and this space feels like home. I’m grateful you’ve stopped by.
Let’s embrace the journey, one step—and one thought—at a time.
